Movie   ID   Roles   Title
This image shows land in grey, water in blue, the worldwide croplands region as designated by NASA's MODIS instrument in yellow, and the drought regions in brown. Drought data is aggregate data from 2005 till 2009.   3651 Scientist
  World Droughts from 2005 to 2009 versus where Crops are Grown
The countries that produced 82% of the world's cereals (grain,oats,wheat,rice,maize, millet, sorghum) in 2008 are shown in yellow and the world population is shown in brown. This version of the image does not have topography.   3649 Scientist
  Food Consumers versus Food Producers
This image shows all countries classified as   3650 Scientist
  Food Insecure Countries
This visualization cycles throught Global Crop Intensity data, MODIS croplands data, FAS Crop Production data, and the United Nations Projected Population in 2050 data. This version is labeled.   3646 Scientist
  2009 Crop Intensity, 2009 Producers, and 2050 Projected Population
Every day, NASA collects information vital to food production all over the world. This information is a valuable asset. NASA's mission: to give it away for free. With the data they collect, teams of NASA researchers and their partners at the USDA Foreign Agriculture Service, USAID Famine Early Warning Network (FEWS NET), NOAA, and several major universities including the University of Maryland, work to increase crop yields, ease famine, and keep the global agricultural system functioning.<p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href=   10491 Interviewee
  Science For a Hungry World: NASA's Partners
This animation zooms into Rondonia, Brazil. It starts with a Landsat image taken in 1975 and dissolves into a second image of the same region taken in 2009. There has been a significant amount of land use change.   3637 Scientist
  Deforestation of Rondonia, Brazil from 1975 to 2009
This visualization shows Crop Intensity data (regions that produce the most crops), followed by the MODIS croplands product, the 26 countries that produce 82% of the world's food, the population density in 2002 and finally the projected population in 2050.   3629 Scientist
  Crop Intensity
This animation shows global fires in 2007 and then zooms to the Northern Territory of Australia and shows fires in 2008. The Northern Territory has one of the highest frequencies of early season fires in Australia because land managers there conduct numerous prescribed fires to reduce grass that could act as fuel for more severe wildfires later in the dry season(May until October).   3624 Scientist
  2008 Northern Australia Fire Observations
This animation shows the NDVI time series in the wheat producing regions in Australia for the growing season of two drought years and one normal year. The preview image is from the 2006 drought on Oct 18, 2006.   3598 Scientist
  Monitoring Agricultural Production from Space
This animation shows where the world's food is grown versus where the world's food is consumed. The movie starts with global croplands and then fades to the countries that produce over 80% of the world's wheat, grain, and cereal. It then overlays the world's population density and then fades to show the countries that are projected to double and triple their population by 2050.   3601 Scientist
  Global Agricultural Monitoring
Fires around the world from Jan 1 through Dec 31, 2007.   3597 Scientist
